Comments for IOLA:
I tkink Iola is a very pretty name, pronounced the Welsh way, Yo-lah.-- Mairead 9/6/2006
Iola was Mama's annoying neighbor on the TV show 'Mama's Family'.-- xKatiex 10/12/2006
I think this is a pretty name, either in its own right or as a nickname for Iolanthe. Now that Lola and Isla are climbing the name charts I can't understand why Iola, more refined than Lola in my opinion and prettier than Isla in my opinion, isn't also on the rise.-- Jonquil 4/14/2009
A character in the musical Parade is named Iola and they pronounce it "IE-o-la". The musical is set in the south in the early 20th century.-- sqirrlie 4/16/2009
Iola is a very pretty name. It would be a good alternative to Iona, without the dreaded "I own a" jokes.-- Ailis 2/19/2010
While it is rare today, Iola was actually somewhat common in the early 1900s and was briefly in the top 300. So the label "rare" is misleading. [noted -ed]-- bananarama 5/15/2010
In Wales it's used as a female version of Iolo.-- Pie 11/21/2010
In Wales, pronounced YO-lah.-- Anonymous User 2/28/2011

Iola Leroy was the main character in the novel of the same name written by Frances Harper. It is about a girl, Iola, who was briefly enslaved just before the Civil War after her father dies and it is revealed her mother is a former slave of mixed race. The novel follows her choice to live as an African American. It is one of the first novels published by an African American woman, and a very good read.-- britto08 9/25/2011
